Hallo! I am Carly, or Karithina as I am around the internet. I’m a 21 year old graduate of a Bachelor of New Media Arts degree at James Cook University in Australia, where I majored in what is now called 'Illustration and Visual Media'.

I'm still very much a beginner at German, but I am always willing to practice! So far my most challenging conversation was small talk in a taxi with the German driver, where I near told him it snows in tropical North Queensland.

Politics:
The Australian Sex Party (opposed to internet censorship, supports national media classification, supports royal commission into sexual abuse of children in Australian religious institutions, in favour of legalised abortion, gay rights, voluntary euthanasia, decriminalisation of all drugs for recreational use). I have also volunteered for The Australian Greens. Civil libertarian.

"When I was a child, adults would tell me not to make things up, warning me of what would happen if I did. As far as I can tell so far, it seems to involve lots of foreign travel and not having to get up too early in the morning."— Neil Gaiman (Smoke and Mirrors)
